Just what it says on the box! If you're interested in the game but not sure which character you want to play, or if you're testing out a new one, or if you just want to thread with someone, this is the place to do it. If you want to play your characters as already having Dream Eaters, that's just fine too - that's part of the fun of this game, after all!

Dexter Grif | Red vs Blue

So thinks Dexter Grif as he wanders around Traverse Town. It's kind of nice to be in some form of civilization after spending most of the past few years in some form of canyon. Usually in the middle of nowhere. With no way in or our. And coloured bases at either end. Landing in the middle of nowhere on a planet in the middle of nowhere really had been the icing on the cake.

So the change of scenery is nice. If a little weird.

Still, if there's a place he could get a decent meal around here, that would be fantastic. He's pretty sure his weird lizard thing agrees.]

no subject

[Fang is having a grand old time flapping around Traverse Town. He's not getting too far from his person, just in case, but that doesn't mean he can't go exploring!]

[It pays off almost immediately, as he sees a new Spirit and a new Person. New friends! He swoops down, squeaking happily, and hovers in front of the person. Hi hi hi! You kind of look like my person except your armor is different! Are you new? They should be friends!]

[This is not G'loot Praktaw. Given that he has no recollection of how he came here, Croach is confused. The explanation he was given by the creature designated Moogle is obviously erroneous. This cannot be his dream - there would be far more triangles were that the case.]

[He supposes it is possible he has somehow entered a human dream. This is the tenth least desirable set of circumstances he can think to be in. He will have to make do for now and somehow ignore the nagging feeling of an onus left unfulfilled.]

[He is currently scouting the city, looking for advantageous positions to settle temporarily. The blue bouncing creature designated Meow Wow is not helping with his stealth in any capacity. Perhaps, once he finds a protected space, he can devote some thought into deciding upon its designation.]

no subject

[It's very nearly not anywhere, in so far as this particular visitor to the dreamscape can tell. To be fair, he's missing most of the equipment he might have been inclined to use in order to tell where anything is, but worlds almost certainly don't work like this. Pocket dimensions, maybe, but not whole worlds. But he's resigned himself to not being able to work out all the details just yet. They're there, but it's going to take some work to get there.

In the meantime, there's nothing that says that he can't at least say hello to people, even if his Pricklemane will instead on bounding several steps ahead.]

Aradia Megido | Homestuck

[In the town square, Aradia can be found sitting on a railing and digging through her newbie goodie bag. She's humming tunelessly to herself and kicking her feet absently. The consorts on this planet are nice enough, but she's intensely curious as to whose dream bubble this actually is. She's never seen anything like it, and she considers herself pretty well-traveled in the Furthest Ring.

So how about those time travels

[It's the wings that catch Four's attention first. He's seen an awful lot of races over his travels through time and space but not very many that actually had wings. And certainly not ones like hers.

For once, his Pricklemane is even managing to stay behind him for a change, and so it is that the first sight Aradia will be treated to is a man with a right mess of curls and just about the longest scarf anyone's ever seen.]

I'm terribly sorry if I'm interrupting, but can you actually fly with those?

Leonard Church (Alpha) | Red vs. Blue

[Have one grouchy blue soldier trying to ignore an eager, loving meow wow. Every so often it will get stepped on or kicked and then run frantically in circles, yipping and whining as if suddenly betrayed, making Church grumble and sigh in annoyance... then it goes right back to getting underfoot. Lather, rinse, repeat.]

no subject

[Wash has had it up to here with this timey-wimey bullshit. A very small part of him is curious to see what the fallout that will happen when Alpha inevitably runs into Epsilon will look like; the rest of him wants nothing to do with any of it. At all.]

[But it's Alpha, and he's kicking a puppy. Goddammit.]

You know, you should probably stop kicking it if you want it to help you later.

no subject

[ The yipping is rather unusual, and loud, catching first the attention of a rather fluffy looking yellow sheep creature as it ambles into range. It tilts its head once to the left, then right, before bleating behind it at some figure wearing aquamarine-teal-seafoam-whatever coloured armor.

Said armored person then gives that same headtilt, clearly puzzled, before she makes her way towards Church. What's a small case of mistaken identity between 'friends', anyway? ]

I'm surprised you could get Allison to let you walk around without her, Church.

no subject

[Aqua can't say she knows Lea very well. But she's seen him around a time or two the last time he'd been in the Realm of Dreams, and had offered her assistance in helping him figure out his Keyblade, but that doesn't mean she really knows him. But that point is less important, as her Komory Bat is already making its way over to say hello to Lea's Dream Eater.]

no subject

[The moment he catches sight of Lea, Roxas is thrown into a whirlwind of emotions. He's missed his friend, the abrupt leaving not helping, but at the same time he's not sure if he should be happy, mad, worried, and who know what else or all of them at the same time.

Although eventually one emotion peaks through and Roxas figures he ought to give Lea a piece of his mind, timelines and everything else be damned. He's not the one at fault this time.]

Ib | .... the game is also called Ib

[Even though she's young, this isn't the first time Ib's been trapped in a horrible nightmare world... and let's be real, this one's much nicer than the last. The "moogle" she met was very helpful (even if some of the things it said were disturbing), and with its assistance she was able to put together an adorable little Meow Wow, which is tagging along beside her as she explores the city. (She named it Rosie.)

Well... it's not really "exploring" so much as "looking for humans." There's a part of her that's earnestly hoping she's not the only one this time...]

Queen Elsa | Frozen

[There's a young woman frantically tugging on the gates to Traverse Town. You know, the ones that don't actually open and don't lead anywhere. She didn't really stick around long enough to listen to the Moogles, though, which is why she does not know this. There's a trail of frost leading from where a very unhappy Steven is still hanging out to her, and more of it is spreading from where she stands, starting to creep up the walls.]

but what is a Steven

[And here's a pony, Pricklemane in tow, coming back from a very successful session of bartering with the Moogles. She pauses when she catches sight of somepony trying to open the useless double doors and calls out to her.]

I'm afraid those don't open.

[It takes Rarity about that long to notice the spreading frost and the young woman's panic. Clearly there is something afoot here. So of course, Rarity walks right into it, coming up next to the woman.]

no subject

[ This is not likely the answer that the Director was expecting. Peering up at him, a bright pink feline with fruit body parts and an aqua coloured bow tied around her neck offers her best kitty smile.

But Lela knew the word 'Freelancer', and the man seemed new, so no doubt he knew her Person! Clearly Lela had to stay and keep him company until her Person showed up! ]

[ (A world away (quite literally), a figure freezes mid-conversation with the local moogle. Though unused since her arrival in the dream, the frequency was never disabled, meaning the command uttered in unforgettable tones renders her speechless as it broadcasts within her helmet.

Apparently when the dream took things away, it sometimes gave something else in exchange. Excusing herself, one woman with a very long-held grudge heads for the nearest portal at a run.) ]

Fran | Katekyo Hitman Reborn

[There seemed to be an unusual kid with a gigantic frog hat simply exploring the streets of Traverse Town. Just trying to find the ins and outs of this world...Or whatever they seemed to call it. Kinda strange that a single town could possibly be enough to be considered a world when so far it didn't even seem big enough to be a town either.]

[Also this Spirit kept chewing on his hat. It was getting very obnoxious.]

Oi, stop that.

[He heard it hiss, presumably at him, although the munching appeared to have stopped so it must have worked...for now. Apparently this Hebby Repp was living up more to its namesake than Fran hoped.]

no subject

[By Nepeta's standards, frog hats are not really terribly strange at all. It's perhaps a little unusual to see on a human, but she's no judge of how things work when it comes down to human fashion. So she simply watches, or at least, that's her intent.

Her Komory Bat, on the other hand, has different ideas, and it comes flapping over to say hello to the new spirit without even the slightest concern for what either of the relevant people have to say.]

Blake Belladonna | RWBY

[Blake's first reaction upon arrival is to explore. Keeping to quiet areas and trying to make up a mental map about this place. From all appearances it seems charming enough, but both a run in or two with nightmares and previous experience tells her appearances might be deceiving. So while none of the Nightmares have given such warning, upon hearing footsteps her hand automatically goes to the hilt of her sword.

She's not bothered to try making her first dream eater yet, despite what the strange creatures had told her, and she's very aware by now that she's alone and is feeling somewhat like a trapped cat as she watches out for whomever approaches.

If its a nightmare, she thinks she can take care of it. If its a person....well maybe they have an answer that makes more sense than "This is a dream".]

no subject

[The footsteps, however, belong to a boy who just wants to go home and lie down. Today's been a weird day with too many new people about and he really just needs to go home and process it all.

He's a little surprised to see Blake, and is about to say something when Bouncer leaps bravely out in front to protect his master. Which involves letting out the most pathetic attempt at a growl ever.]

Webster || Buzz

[A little reluctantly Webster had pocketed his watch, putting on the wrist communicator and staring at it with distaste. It looked like one of those stupid smart watches that told you when you got a text but didn't work too well for actually reading them, or notifying you that you were getting a call and to pick up your cell phone. What was the point anyways?

Couldn't you just pick up your cell when it rang like normal people? He didn't get it.

And, with a long heaving sigh, he let his head fall back, staring at the sky of the strange place he had woken up in. Who ever heard of dream worlds you couldn't actually leave aside from in comic books and works of fiction? Perhaps this place was the same kind of place that busted out the Spelluminati? Just weird.]

This is stupid and I should be studying. [Or eating a sandwich. Or both just so long as he was careful to keep crumbs and condiments off the books.]

no subject

[Fang the Komory Bat is out exploring without his person. He's not really supposed to wander off on his own, but his person is sleeping and that means free time, right? Right!]

[He's flitting around town, looking for something fun to do, when he spots something great: a new person. At least, he thought it was a new person, since Fang hasn't seen him before. He flaps over to the new person and lands near him, squeaking. Hi! You're new, right? He hasn't seen you before, so you must be new! Hi, new Person! Where's your Spirit?]

[Of course, since Fang doesn't exactly speak person, it probably all sounds like a lot of enthused squeaking.]

Yang Xiao Long || RWBY

[A busty blonde stands in front of a fountain in Traverse Town, her hands raised in fists and looking ready to fight. She is surrounded by various Nightmares, including a few Kooma Panda. She does not look phased at all, but she still might need a hand or two.]

Well? Come on!

[There's a burst of flame and Yang launches herself towards the first Nightmare.]

no subject

[Generally when there's a new comer facing off against nightmares for the first time, Roxas runs in to help. And he was going to do that until he saw the burst of flame, and jumped back. He'd never seen magic like that before, not even from Axel.]

no subject

"I want to be a moogle," Hawke decides. Aloud. He's very grimy but he doesn't seem to care what effect that's going to have on the armchair he's flopped in. He's fiddling with the dream shards that a moogle gave him. Moogles have all the good stuff.
